Finding
A File
1. Right click on the
START button on your task bar.
2. Click “Find”.
3. You can search for files by Name, Date Modified or Advanced.
4. To search by name, select the Name & Location tab (if it isn’t already
showing).
5. Type the file’s name into the “Name” box.
(*Hint: if you aren’t sure what the exact file name is, but know it includes
some words, such as “finding”, you can search for all file names that include
that word by typing an “*” in front and behind the word. Ex: “*finding*” would
find all file names with the word finding somewhere in them.)
6. Select the correct location to search in by clicking on the down arrow beside
the “look in” box. If you don’t know where on your computer you saved the file,
select “My Computer”.
7. Click FIND NOW.
